,----[ Quote ]
| With much anticipation, the Linux 2.6.29 kernel was released just moments ago
| by Linus Torvalds. Besides introducing an interim logo to stand-in for Tux,
| the Linux 2.6.29 kernel most notably introduces support for kernel
| mode-setting on Intel hardware. Also in the graphics realm are a few updates
| to the Graphics Execution Manager and DRM updates for various pieces of
| hardware.
